Colloquium Presentation: Forests as Storable and Renewable Resources

Colloquium Presentation in Environmental Economics and Economic Growth: Forests as Storable and Renewable Resources

Worked by: Teuku Bahran Basyiran

Presented for: Colloquium of Economic Growth in 2017 at University of Tuebingen, Germany

A Brief Idea about this Presentation:
It discusses the topics about forest, the storable and renewable resources. Forests play a very important role for human living. But the extent of the forest continuously declines as population continues to grow and human needs increase. The decline becomes worse over time due to the economic dilemma in the Third World countries who are holding the largest share of world forest. So, how can the forest resources be sustainable? What should the countries and the world do?
